"In [Captain Hook's] dark nature there was a touch of the feminine, as in all the great pirates."
- J. M. Barrie, "Peter Pan"
Originally, J. M. Barrie toyed with the idea of Captain Hook in the "Peter Pan" play being played in drag by the same actress who played Mrs. Darling (the children's mother).
Captain Hook "had been at a famous public school. Its traditions still clung to him.... Above all he retained the passion for good form. Good form! However much he may have degenerated, he still knew that this is all that really matters."
- J. M. Barrie, "Peter Pan"

Thank you for all the boosts and favs. I’d really like to illustrate the whole story, if anyone would be interested in supporting/potronising such project.
Here’s the little drawing of Peter Pan I did at that time as well, on the side of the paper...
Hey, here’s something I didn’t present before but it’s made some time ago, hence #ThrowbackThurday
It’s a standalone illustration for Peter Pan. I didn’t do more at the time but I’d love to! I’m open for commissions you know, just saying... :)
How all the spanko women I know are just like Tinkerbelle: a meme.

“Neverland is as much a tomb for the unloved and forgotten as it is a map of a child’s mind. It is a place ruled by a boy with a memory as thin as the skeleton leaves he wears.”

“Barrie’s book may ostensibly be about the boys’ eternal childhood, but it’s the mother figures who are the scaffolding upon which his story rests.”

“Barrie was a wounded creature, from his earliest youth, and his probing of that wound is what makes PETER PAN so enduringly painful to read […] The tensions are bald and excruciating.”

The Chaotic Story of Peter Pan & the Pirates and the Fox vs. Disney Peter Pan War
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ueXIWyT7xE
A show that was almost made by CBS, until Disney threw its weight. But the young upstart FOX network went through on that challenge. A response to the removal of #Ducktales. And then, a WAR played out through kids programing. This is the story of #PeterPanAndThePirates.
